Happy 30th, Pac!

2010 marks the 30th anniversary of Pac-Man's debut. In honor of the anniversary, Circle K stores in Japan are selling a limited-edition Pac-Man bun, filled with a (very delicious sounding, I must say) crushed almond cookie and cream custard! Get them now, while you can (and mail some to NYC while you're at it). Available for ¥120 (around $1.31).

WHAT IS THIS BLOG ABOUT?

Food shaped like things...other than food! A bit of an obsession of mine - I've made two books about Japanese character bentos (charaben). Consider this an online, ever-expanding companion to Face Food Recipes and Face Food: The Visual Creativity of Japanese Bento Boxes, both released by Mark Batty Publisher.
